Chapter 42: Xiao Wu's New Function

  Thanks for the rewards from 'Super Clown', '_Vivian' and 'Xin Zhuang Xiao Lang Jun'! Asking for three rivers votes! Asking for collection! Asking for recommendation!

  "...I, on behalf of the county committee and government, hereby make the following decision: Wen Peng, director of the Chengguan police station, is removed from his post on the spot; People's Police Officer Zhang Liye is expelled from public office. The two are handed over to the county bureau for investigation. People's Police Officer Qian Xiaohao is given a severe warning." Yang Jie had not yet walked out of the courtyard when he heard the majestic voice of Zhou Dalong coming from the large hall outside.

  "Secretary, Yang Jie has come out!" Chen Yuan watched as Wen Peng and Zhang Liye were handcuffed and taken away by several police officers, then saw Yang Jie hastily walking over from the backyard and quietly reminded Zhou Dalong.

  "Secretaries Luo and Lei, Director Chen, Minister Sun, I've troubled you all!" Yang Jie hastily walked up to Zhou Dalong's side, bowed deeply to the leaders with respect, and said gratefully.

  "Comrade Xiao Yang, you're not hurt, are you?" Zhou Dalong saw that Yang Jie's body didn't seem to have any injuries, and his spirit looked fine too, so he felt a sudden relief in his heart.

  "Thank you, Secretary, for your concern. I'm fine, but Liao Kai first slandered me by saying I hit someone, and then arranged for the Gongguan police station to send a civilian officer to take me back. Then, in the interrogation room, he tried to coerce Deng Xiaoyue, the receptionist at the Huanhe Hotel, into testifying against me. If Director Yang hadn't arrived just in time, I fear the consequences would have been unthinkable." Yang Jie said, recounting how Zhang Liye had found him on Changning Road and asked him to come back to assist with the investigation, and then went with Chen Yinglong to the interrogation room and saw the situation.

  "Captain Chen, is what Yang Jie said true? Did you personally see Liao Kai preparing to violate Deng Xiaoyue?" Luo Yuan Cheng asked in a low voice after hearing Yang Jie's words, turning his head to look at Chen Ying Long with a flash of cold light in his eyes.

  "Secretary Luo, Comrade Yang Jie's words are true. At that time, I and three police officers from the Public Security Brigade saw it with our own eyes. Liao Kai tore Deng Xiaoyue's shirt in the interrogation room. If we hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable..." Chen Yinglong said this, seeing Deng Xiaoyue come out, suddenly stopped speaking.

  Zhou Dalong listened to Yang Jie and Chen Yinglong, his face cold and silent. He exchanged a glance with several standing committee members beside him before looking at Yang Hua, who was standing aside. "Director Yang, immediately arrest Liao Kai and Zheng Yuan. Investigate this matter thoroughly for me. Without my permission, no one is allowed to see them until the investigation is clear."

  "Yes! Please rest assured, Secretary. The Public Security Bureau has the confidence and ability to complete the tasks assigned by our superiors." Yang Hua's face turned serious as he saluted and made a promise to Zhou Dalong.

  "After this incident, I found that the problems of the Gong'an County Public Security Bureau have reached an unbearable degree. Immediately, internal rectification and clearing will be carried out within the Public Security Bureau. Some cadres who are not suitable to continue holding leadership positions should be dismissed or adjusted accordingly."

  "You, as the deputy director, must use thunderous methods to rectify and manage the various departments of the county bureau. You must eliminate from the public security forces those corrupt, undisciplined, incompetent, and disobedient police officers within the Binyang County Public Security Bureau. You must ensure that the county bureau is revitalized in the shortest possible time, becoming a united team that obeys orders, dares to fight, and wins the trust of the people." Zhou Dalong handed Yang Hua this sharp sword for rectifying the county bureau, in front of all the county committee members and numerous public security officers.

  Something big happened at the Chengguan Police Station, and Secretary Guo Xin of the Political and Legal Committee received the news quickly. The five members of the Standing Committee gathered at the Chengguan Police Station, and Liao Kai was personally ordered to be detained by Director Zhou. This matter can't be hidden even if you want to hide it.

  Liao Guojin felt restless all afternoon, and when he received a call from Guo Xin, he learned that his beloved only son Liao Kai had been ordered to be detained for investigation by Director Zhou. Suddenly, he felt like he had lost his soul, his face was pale, and he leaned weakly against the chair, his eyes filled with a disappointed and resentful look.

  Liao Kai has done so many bad things in Yunhe County, and no one knows more about it than Liao Guojin. Liao Guojin, who has been covering up for Liao Kai all day long, knows that if the Public Security Bureau investigates carefully, they can find out many of Liao Kai's shady dealings. In the past, there was also Luo Song suppressing him, but now that Luo Song is down, and with Secretary Zhou taking over the Public Security Bureau, it would be easy to take care of Liao Kai with just one word.

  Last night, Liao Guojin also warned Liao Kai to stay out of trouble recently. After all, the secretary and county magistrate had almost fallen out over the public security bureau's affairs. Once Zhou Shuji grasped the handle, Liao Kai would become the breakthrough for the secretary to deal with him.

  Unexpectedly, it was only one night that Liao Kai was arrested by Zhou Shuji's order, and the crime committed by Liao Kai was very serious. The five county committee members personally came to the police station and caught him red-handed.

  This time, Liao Kai intended to defile the young girl, and it was in the interrogation room of the police station. Although it did not succeed, such a thing is too wrong, Liao Guojin's concern is chaotic, and his heart is immediately confused.

  "Ding ding ding......"

  The phone on the desk rang non-stop, and Liao Guojin, who was sitting in the office racking his brains, couldn't calm down to think about how to save Liao Kai. Looking at the still ringing phone, he had a look of not giving up until he answered it, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, picked up the phone.

  "Liao Secretary, I'm Ma Liangyu. The county magistrate wants to invite you to come over to the government side for a visit!" Ma Liangyu cursed in his heart when Liao Guojin finally answered the phone after so long, fortunately the call went through, otherwise he would have had to run to the county committee again.

  Liao Guojin's heart skipped a beat as soon as he heard that Zhang Dashan was looking for him, and his numb heart suddenly came alive. He and Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Guo Xin, were Zhang Dashan's right-hand men. Now that Liao Kai had gotten into such trouble, only Zhang Dashan could save him.

  "Okay! I'll be right there!" Liao Guojin said, putting down the phone and getting up to leave the office.

  ……………

  Yang Jie, who followed Chen Yinglong to the Public Security Brigade to make a statement, quickly finished making the statement under Chen Yinglong's personal record. Deng Xiaoyue was a woman, and Chen Yinglong was very considerate, specially arranging two female police officers to take her statement and take evidence photos separately.

  "Yang, younger brother, Fan Shaozheng has been taken back from the People's Hospital by us. He and Zheng Yuan have already been locked in the interrogation room. Time is pressing, we must take the initiative before Liao Secretary and others make their move. We must break through these two men and get their confessions. You rest here for a while, I'll go interrogate them first."

  Chen Yinglong handled matters with speed and efficiency. After finishing Yang Jie's deposition, he immediately stood up, letting Yang Jie rest in his office while he went to the interrogation room to retrieve Fan Shaozheng and Zheng Yuan's depositions.

  As Chen Yinglong was about to leave, Yang Jie was reminded by Xiao Wu and hastily called out to him, "Brother Chen, the interrogation of Fan Shaozheng and Zheng Yuan directly implicated Liao Kai. Just recording their oral confessions is not enough; they can change their statements at any time and claim that you coerced them into making false confessions. It would be best to use a camera to record the entire interrogation process as evidence, just in case."

  "Yang, I really didn't expect you to be so thorough in your thinking. Alright, our brigade has a camera, I know what to do now!" Chen Yinglong's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and with a smile, he nodded at Yang Jie before striding out of the office.

  After Chen Yinglong closed the door and left, when only Yang Jie was left in the office, Xiao Wu quickly came out and said with a smile: "Brother Jie, listening to me won't go wrong, right? You see, only by making things public can there be a turning point."

  "Really! Thanks to Little Five, you're so calm and reminded me in time!" Yang Jie looked at the clever Little Five who came out and said with a smile: "You're just an intelligent system, how can you consider such complex things? Sometimes I really suspect that you are a human being rather than a system."

  "The system is an auxiliary system for work and life, providing the host with proposals that are most beneficial to the host's interests. It is Xiao Wu's responsibility. However, according to the system's comprehensive analysis, Liao Kai's father will not sit idly by while his son is arrested, and it is likely that they will take action." After Yang Jie said this, Xiao Wu smiled complacently for a moment before her face turned serious, staring at Yang Jie and asking: "In order to protect the host's interests, can I use phone lines to connect to the internet and eavesdrop on phone calls? Do I need to secretly monitor Liao Kai's father's movements?"

  Yang Jie didn't expect Xiao Wu to have such an ability, thinking that she had already merged with him, curiously asked: "Didn't you merge with me? How can you eavesdrop then?"

  To be honest, being able to eavesdrop on someone's phone call is very tempting for Yang Jie. After all, he still doesn't know the attitude of Liao Guojin's side now. As long as he can eavesdrop on the county magistrate's phone call, he can turn passive into active and learn about their layout in advance.

  Xiao Wu saw Yang Jie puzzled, a mysterious smile, and explained: "Xiao Wu is a variable substance type intelligent light brain, of course it has variability. Take a look at your right hand index finger, isn't there an extra small thorn?"

  Yang Jie looked at his own right hand index finger, and saw that on the tip of his index finger, he didn't know when, a transparent thorn about half a centimeter long, the size of a toothpick, had grown out from under the skin of his fingertip. The thorn looked like crystal glass, sparkling and translucent.

  He reached out and gently touched it, the thorn was extremely hard, with a texture similar to crystal, it perfectly merged with his fingertips, as if it had grown on his index finger since birth. Looking at this sudden appearance of the thorn, Yang Jie looked into Xiao Wu's eyes and said: "When did it come out? Why didn't I feel anything?"

  "When the parasitism first occurred, Xiao Wu extracted Jie Gege's DNA. The intelligent light brain main body in Jie Gege's body has transformed into an existence similar to his own cellular tissue, so Xiao Wu will not be rejected by Jie Gege's bodily instincts."

  "This network signal transmission line was originally hidden in Jie Ge's hair, but because I wanted to tap into the phone, I had to put it on your finger. You just need to insert it into the phone line and Xiao Wu can search for useful information through the telephone line." Xiao Wu explained with a smile the origin of the sharp needle on Yang Jie's finger.

  Yang Jie didn't know that on his head, there was something like a satellite antenna growing in his hair, which wouldn't be discovered normally. What's more, it could change its position at will, and even cutting his hair wouldn't affect it.

  With a curious mind, Yang Jie picked up the telephone cord on his office desk and inserted the sharp end into the line.
